25Avalon
Volver I am sorry if I have offended you. The point I was making is that unless it gets changed constitutionally we are stuck with the system. The Queen stays on if she wants to. That isn’t to say it is right. We have never had a monarch rule for so long and she is showing signs of old age. I suppose since it’s only a nominal position the government won’t want to change the constitution, at the moment anyway. More people are asking what the point of it all is, but others say it should be kept. I agree it is rather pathetic to see the Queen struggling but it’s her choice - at the moment anyway.
That's OK 25Avalon, I'm not offended, just exasperated.
I know how it works. I just don't thing that we should stick with something forever just because "that's how it works". I think you agree. Questioning the status quo isn't consigning the past to the dustbin. Its not being nasty to the dear old Queen. Its just saying the we're in the 21st Century now, and things might have to change, because the country has changed.
